You cant just use another CD from a different device to install your drivers/software. The issue is that you do not have your ethernet card drivers installed and probably many other drivers as well.

A simple solution to this is on another computer go to the support page of the manufacture of your device.

From there they will request your units make/model. You then select your operating system and download the latest drivers one by one.

To see what drivers you need (on the internet that youve reformatted) go to control panel / hardware and sound / add/remove device and anything with a yellow ? next to it is an unknown device because the drivers are not installed. Next to each yellow ? will be a brief description thats very generic of what the device is, simply go down the list on the manufacture's support page and download each device one by one.

Either burn the files to a disc or you can use a small thumb drive to transfer them to the other non working unit.

If you have windows Vista simply Right Click on the entry in device manager and choose Update driver (Requires working internet connection)

Else use the following drivers (Works on XP and vista)
ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R64645.EXE

you need the drivers for those devices marked with yellow --"yellow"ethernet
controller will not allow to access the web to download drivers to solve your problem--options are:- use the "original" driver disk that came with the laptop or download to another pc/laptop and transfer drivers using usb key.

try using Microsoft update to scan for driver and software updates.

Make sure the driver of the Ethernet Card on your computer is installed. You check it under Device Manager

Right-click My Computer > Properties > Hardware Tab > Device Manager > Network Adapters (click the +). If you see Other Devices with yellow exclamations like Ethernet Controller, that's it. You need to run the Motherboard CD to automatically install the ethernet driver.
